Phantom of the Paradise

£9.99

Brian De Palmas inspired rock n roll fusion of Faust, The Phantom of the Opera and The Picture of Dorian Gray boasts an Oscar-nominated score by Paul Williams, who also stars as an evil record producer who not only steals the work of composer/performer Winslow Leach (William Finley) but gets him locked up in Sing Sing - and thats not the worst that happens to him along the way. Few revenge scenarios have ever been so amply justified, but the film is also constantly aware of the satirical possibilities offered by the 1970s music industry, exemplified by Gerrit Grahams hilariously camp glam-rock star. Jessica Harper (Suspiria) appears in her first major role as the nave but ambitious singer, on whom Winslow secretly dotes. Prodigiously inventive both musically and visually, this is one of De Palms most entertaining romps, not least because it was so clearly a labour of love. Special Features: High Definition Blu-ray (1080p) presentation of the feature, available in the UK for the first time! Uncompressed Stereo PCM / 4.0 DTS-HD Master Audio options Isolated Music and Effects soundtrack Optional English SDH subtitles for the deaf and hearing impaired Paradise Regained: A 50-minute documentary on the making of the film featuring director Brian De Palma, producer Edward R.
